We are pleased to inform you that we welcome camper aides, provided that they go through our onboarding process prior to the start of camp.
NOTE: This process can take up to two weeks and needs to be completed before the start of your camp week.
While our camps aren’t specifically designed to accommodate campers with special needs, many kids with a wide range of needs have had great experiences with us over the years. If your child has a 1:1 aide at school, it is likely that given the nature of Galileo’s programming, which is delivered “classroom style,” your child would benefit from the same level of support.
Campers who require an aide must be able to care for themselves during any breaks taken by the aide, as Galileo staff are unable to provide one-on-one care during the camp day.
Given the nature of our programming and our staffing structure, Galileo is not able to provide 1:1 support or act as the primary aides for any individual camper. If your child requires the assistance of an aide at camp, it is the responsibility of the family to complete the Camper Aide process.
Please feel free to contact our customer service team at [email protected] for more information about whether our camp would be a good fit for your child.
